Seattle Central College

Seattle Central College – Commencement & Academic Regalia Summary

Seattle Central College participates in a unified commencement ceremony under Seattle Colleges. Graduates must register for graduation and order or borrow academic regalia to walk at commencement.

Academic regalia is required for all graduates: a graduation cap (mortarboard), gown, and tassel. (Caps/gowns are available for purchase or via a free Cap-and-Gown Loan Program for eligible students).

The color of the gown and tassel depends on credential type: students earning an associate degree, certificate, GED, or high‑school equivalency wear a royal blue gown and tassel. Those earning a bachelor‑level credential (BAS or BS) wear a black gown and tassel.

Stoles and cords are optional adornments to recognize membership in specific student groups, honor status, veteran status, support‑program affiliation or degree‑type (e.g. Bachelor of Applied Science). The color of stoles and cords varies depending on the issuing group — not standardized across disciplines by Seattle Central or Seattle Colleges.

For faculty, graduates with master’s or doctoral degrees, and others entitled to hoods, the academic regalia may include hoods colored according to academic discipline and grant‑awarding institutions — consistent with traditional academic‑regalia practices.

In summary: Seattle Central College’s commencement attire policy requires a cap, gown and tassel. Gown/tassel color is credential‑based: royal blue for associate/certificate/GED, black for bachelor‑level. Optional cords, stoles, or hoods reflect group membership or academic status and are not tied to a published discipline‑based color chart. The Cap‑and‑Gown Loan Program ensures regalia access for graduates who may not purchase their own set.
